Alleyways and Hooters

[RichardGerstner]

The alleyways were the coolest thing ever. Got you home real quick, just in time for the 16h05 hooter.

[Michael Alexander]

How many times a day did the hooter go?

???

[RichardGerstner]

Wow, Good Question.

My guess is;

06h30
07h00
12h30
13h00
14h00
16h05

Of course I may be well out here, I am sure somebody will come to my rescue.

Regards
Richard

Was'nt there one for the fire....? or 3 for the fire.... I forgot about the hooter.... CLive you should know!

???

the hooter, oh my god yea the rule was be home when the hooter sounds.
My folks retired to Kirstenhof, close to Pollsmoor and occationally the hooter sounds, like the old days.........

[Michael Alexander]

Not being racist, but when you tell the young black kids( 18-30 ) here about how the blacks had to be back in the Hostel at 16h00 when the hooter went, or the rich ovambo's in those days were the ones who rode a bike, they don't believe you...Never!

Now even the bedrock cleaners are driving Pajero's and BMW.........

;D

[barb (Fry)]

time's are a changing.
CDM was always a good company to work for, spread the wealth, hey.
It's interesting times we live in is what Daniel OConnell said, relevant every generation.

[Michael Alexander]

mmmh! wish they'd spread some of that wealth this way.....

[barb (Fry)]

you can't afford a pajero or BMW ?

[Michael Alexander]

Sssssh! , this is a fact, since I married Michele all those years ago, I do not have a bank acc, no cheque or credit card and believe it or not ... I do not know what I earn..... and I get pocket money.... But the nice thing is..... I am happy, very happy!

;D
